THE QUALITY SOUND COMBINED WITH THE CAMERA ANGLE PUT'S ME IN THE RIGHT SEAT. THANK YOU.
Great video. I am 82. I flew on a friend's Beechcraft D-18 once, back in 1962 from Buenos Aires to Montevideo. Nice, night 50' flight.
Speed management is the key kids. As you can tell he's not pulling that many Gs or stressing his engines. He launches himself by constantly diving and building the speed he needs to propel him through the desired maneuvers. Pretty cool in that old school twin beech. He's a great pilot for sure.
@Rene Darwin I have no doubt you’re just projecting words that were spoken to you your entire life. “ Nobody Gives A Damn and they were talking about you”. 😹
@Matias Jett Watch out for that tree! 😹
Energy management in much the same way Bob Hoover did what he did in his Shrike Commander.
I thought the 4 point roll was impressive until he did the 8. Bravo!!
Great video and great flying - sure know how to horse that plane around. And a special thanks for no music soundtrack.
AMEN to that!
I wanna wear earplugs at airshows, but NOT to drown out the sound of the planes!
What's plane please?
@@boell beech 18
I hear the music of twin radial engines... sounds great
@@boell 18 cylinders... radial engine requires uneven numbers of cylinders in each bank... the largest has 4 banks of 9... 27 cylinders... for big airplanes
WOW, just got my private done and worked so hard for it. Now I see this. He may as well just eat a samich while he effortlessly toys with his Model 18. He is my new hero.
Such a work load with all that trimming, and from outside you know it's so graceful and smooth
It’s surprising he doesn’t have electric trim on that 18. It would seem a toggle on that yolk would be so much easier that constantly reaching down and rolling trim.
That's how he rolls :) @@afterburner2869
WOW that's awesome 👍😎 thanks again as a kid I loved the Beechcraft Model 18 💖💯🆒
What an amazing ride! I haven't had that much fun on UA-cam in a long time. You're an awesome pilot, thanks!
What a brilliant pilot. So precise and cool. Beautiful
Cant believe that was 4 years ago and I just filmed him doing this flight this past summer. It literally gave me chills with every bank and crack of the props when he passed by.. It was a beautiful sky with them puffy clouds too.. One of my favorite parts of oshkosh.
Just saw this guy in Charleston WV and I must say its truly some of the best flying I have ever seen. Keep up the work man.
Ditto on everyone's comments on this guy's flying chops...he's pretty damn comfy tossing around a Beech 18. My first thought once he was airborne was that those two engines hanging out there were not the stock radials that came with that Beechcraft....they sounded much different and seemed to be providing some super responsive power. I used to live very close to the South Expressway airport just off Tara Blvd. or Griffin Hwy, somewhat near Jonesboro, Ga. and some outfit ran a freight business outta that airport using a couple of Beech 18's. They had one that left about midnight and loped over my house almost nightly, and that radial sounded mucho el straino hauling a heavy load skyward. Obviously flying empty with one person on board will make the engines sound so different, but I would just bet some tuning had been appropriated on those puppies. Really cool to watch a man do such sweet "stick and rudder" moves on a very iconic and vintage flying machine. Way to be, Mr. Matt Younkin, you are the man.
One of the most impressive demos I've seen.
Kudos to that guy! A true master.
Sure makes one appreciate how much work is involved when flying an AirShow! Great Job Matt!
Nice job Matt! Wow and all the engine management as well. Incredible flying. You are modern day Bob Hoover.
As a one time aerobatic pilot, he is doing a helluva job. Looks totally at ease and comfortable.
Never seen someone having so much trouble, trying to land a plane.
bro i fuckin died reading this LOL
You make no sense!
is his first solo
Must be Gen Z.
Rudder pedals mystify him. 😂
😂
Wow what a stupendous flying at such a low altitude -- never seen any aerobatics like that !
wow! saw Matt at Abbotsford last year. Awesome performance in one of my favorite airplanes of all time. It's unreal to see a transport like that going through an aerobatic routine at ground level. Another Bob Hoover!
What a show and what an amazing aircraft! Thank you for sharing your adventures.
Great visibility from the cockpit !
Matt is awesome. I go to Oshkosh every year to watch this & his night show. Far better than Thunderbirds, Snowbirds, Blue Angels. This is the show to see. Team Aeroshell is at the top of the list too.
Great flying, Matt! Cool seeing you fly at the big show!
#Aviation #Oshkosh
Matt: You da Man! This is so cool. You epitomize all thats right about classic aviation. Thanks
wow. This is to me be most impressive in cockpit aerobatic show. Well, after I flew with Bob Hoover long time ago.
Man Matt is an awesome pilot
It feels like I was floating along with him!
His vertical speed indicator got a hell of a workout!!
What a show!!
Wow, this view makes it look easy.
Seen this guy at the air show at the Halls TN airbase before and mannnn does he put on a show!
Thanks for the ride.
Wow !!!!!!!!!!! Incredible pilot !!!!
Geez Louise...freakin awesome video.
this guys a freaking maniack! Very impressive pilot!
Thanks for posting this clean! It's neat to see (and hear!) what's going on. I don't think he did any real throttle adjustments except for the tops of the Cuban eight! (Although always checking them!) Sure was busy on the trim wheel though!
boy, that trim wheel gets it's exercise... :) Awesome POV though!
David Andruczyk Why is he playing with that thing so much?
+CrabSpirits reduce needed control pressure (easier to control when your not fighting as much pressure)
Wow, unbelieveable what men can do! Mr. Younkin is the perfect pilot for the WW II. Mosquito !!!
Noticed several tips during his TO and Landing re: Tail Wheel planes. Thanks!
Lol sounds like a lawn mower or dirt bike Hahahaha dudes a beast though
always a favorite of mine! nice flyin Matt!
Very Nice👏👏
Thanks for the ride-along :-)
One of the best!
What a Great Video,,,, Great Pilot,,, Great Work,,,,
Almost as good as Buddy Hackett and Mickey Rooney in "It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World"!
Buddy Hackett: What is something happens?
Jim Backus: What can happen to an Old Fashioned?
"It's the ONLY way to fly!"
That's like riding with Buddy Hackett and Mickey Rooney in Mad Mad World. "Let's just shoot them down and be done with it". Love it!
Never knew a twin beech could do that!
Matt's Twin Beech is modified so he can perform the aerobatics. He does a great job!
VERY VERY SHOW and PILOT, BRASIL CONGRATULATIONs
This pilot and video kick ass!
Great ride! Thanks!
He's a madman!
Who would've thought one of these could do this? Great flight, This guy's working his fanny off in there. This is not easy.
Son of a Beechcraft. This Guy is Good. 😀
I had the privlage of seeing him fly in Sidney Montana a couple years back, was awesome. hope to see him fly again
That is a whole lot of skill....and balls.
Big balls and capabilities right there
The lack of a shoulder harness here is very distressing. It's not for negative g, it's used because it's literally the ONLY thing keeping your head and upper body from slamming into the instrument panel and yoke in a crash or even an unexpected sudden stop during landing (brakes fail, gear collapses, deer run out on the runway...) This is so important that the EAA actually required members in the early days to sign a pledge to never fly in a plane without wearing a shoulder restraint.
I respect Matt a ton, but I think this is not a good decision and one I find hard to understand.
I thought Jim Backus was going to step into the cockpit holding an old fashioned!
what a master
UGh I would give anything to ride along with Matt
AMAZING!!!!
Some mad skills
... he's doing all of those maneuvers and he's only wearing a lap belt?
Wow.
He never pulls any negative Gs and no hard aerobatics so there is no need for a 4 or 5 point harness
I would think just being inverted would necessitate a 4 or 5 point harness... shows how little I know about what a pilot goes through in his routine.
My thoughts exactly, just a lap belt even your car has more than that.
it was probably never negative, the rolls were barrel...
He's basically doing like Bob Hoover, all 1 to 3 1/2 positive g's. No negative. His butt never came off the seat even a little bit. Amazing to watch and very instructive, too.
Excellent good job 👏
Thanks for share of a Beech
Wow!!!!!
All I have to say is "wow"
hujj YOU LLC LOG POOH q up 17 o o op op op0q IL igj
If I was in there I'll get disy but it sounds like fun
The torque almost got em.
bravo...bravo..
Was there a little stall while low and in steep turn at 7:30 - 7:31 ? Seems like it stalls but he pushes forward instantly and recovers. Comments?
Roller coaster without wheels !
You need to get out there next time you have the cowlings off and adjust that throttle stagger out.... Nice flyin'
P.S. How long do your engines last? I haven't heard that much barking since I accidently took off 1500 pounds over weight.
Seems he was working the trim wheel more than anything else.
sun 🌞of a gunski... all that's missing is a barn to fly through... at 200 nauts...
Reckless? haha, that was awesome!
A. LAP. BELT. AWESOME...
🇺🇸🇺🇸💪👍👀🇺🇸🇺🇸
Smooth.
Flawless.
Never exceeded three G's, if that.
RA "Bob" Hoover must have been his instructor Pilot!
You'd think so, with that performance. But, it was Matts Dad, Bobby Younkin. His Dad used to perform the same performance in this Beech 18. Awesome family.
Yeah, my first time in one looked a bit like that too 🤣
Two questions that I thought of while watching this:
1). What is the reason for the occasional rapid control corrections (e.g. shortly after 7:30): chop/turbulence?
2). What control is Matt often reaching for with his right hand down near the floor of his seat: elevator trim?
Thanks!
Elevator trim wheel, on the floor right next to pilots seat. And he may be flying through his own wake turbulence.
Cool! Thanks for the answers!
👍
To the reader of this comment, may the Lord Jesus Christ God and His Holy Ghost be with you and your loved ones during this time. I hope my comment serves to encourage someone with the truth.
Is this a 'stock' aircraft or have the engines and frame been beefed up?
Darryl Bonds according to his chief mechanic it’s all stock..
If only there is an additional view of the plane from outside to complete the puzzle
You are the pilot man?
Whew!
Hope it has the spar strap!
All positive.
Do he teach this somewhere?
Nice video. No parachute, and throwing trash (duct tape) out of the Windows.
he looks a little too comfortable doing this
What type of plane?
Like...
No quicker way to ruin an aircraft than aerobatics in one that is not designed for it.
Is parachute required by regulation during aerobatics?
Nope... how are you going to get out?
Down with Reactionaries Parachutes are only required for non-crewmembers.
+Down with Reactionaries yes, they are required for any maneuver that exceeds: a bank of 60 degrees or a nose up or nose down attitude of 30 degrees. FAR 91.307
gran labor excelente piloto.. el avion lindo ... ufff
Holy crap! That sure beats the drunken farmer in a Cub.
Can that thing fly straight and level?
His family has suffered many losses in the airshow industry. His aircraft can't have any hick-ups during the performance.
IF ONLY there was a visible 'G meter'! :)
And I don't think he loses airspeed once throughout the whole routine, does he?
